Chapter 074 The first confrontation
Keduncheng?
Yelu Xinilie was silent!
Although he was disgusted in his heart, a voice kept echoing in his mind: The Nanman said it was right, he said it was right. (《》)
Yu Liyan did not speak anymore, but sat down slowly.
After a long time, she whispered: "Fourth Brother, what to do is to decide.
The lives of our people are not important. What is important is that our great Liao Kingdom will be in your mind. You can decide."
This woman is not simple!
After having been in contact with Yu Liyan for so long, Yu Yin also has some understanding of her.
This woman has ambitions and plots... Although she said just now, she seemed to respect Yelu Xi Nilie, but in fact, she was adding pressure to Yelu Xi Nilie. On one side was Emperor Tianzuo Yelu Yanxi and Yelu Xi Nilie's father; on the other side was the Daliao country that lasted for two hundred years. How should we choose? Yelu Xi Nilie was also in a difficult situation.
"Xiao Yi teaches us, are you really going to Keduncheng?"
Yelu Xi Nilie's posture was even lower, and he even had the intention of asking for advice.
Yu Yin sighed, he was really not a decisive person! At this point, Yelu Xi Nilie is far inferior to Yu Liyan.
Isn't he clear in his heart which is more important?
He even said that he already knew how to make a decision... but he couldn't make a decision and could only rely on external forces to promote it.
Yu Yin thought for a while and said softly: "The Fourth Highness has met with Ling Zun. Can you share the worries for Ling Zun? Or, is the Fourth Highness confident of defeating Wanyan Loushi when he arrives at Ling Zun's tent? If not, I advise Your Highness to make a careful decision."
"But……"
"The Fourth Prince, if the Lord is able to win and regain Datong Mansion, even if the Fourth Prince is not here, he can still be regained.
But if Ling Zun fails, the Fourth Highness can at least protect the great Liao Dynasty in Keduan City, rest and recuperate, so as to restore Dongshan to the future. I know that the Fourth Highness is a filial son, but the country's destiny is prolonged. Which one is more important, it must be clearly distinguished at this moment.
In this way, even if Ling Zun is defeated, can he still have a place to return. Is it also a filial piety for the Son of Man?"
These words made Yelu Xi Nilie's position move.
Yu Liyan also said: "Fourth brother, a real man should break if he wants to break, and he must not be short-sighted."
Yelu Xinilie closed his eyes and suddenly paused after a long time, "Well, I followed Yanzi and Xiao Yi, let's go to Keduncheng."
"This is our fourth brother. Even if the father knows, he will definitely praise the fourth brother's decision today."
Yu Liyan smiled with her palms, but Yelu Xi Nilie looked bitter...
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
After deciding on the itinerary, it will be easier to do next.
When Yelu Xinilie told everyone with him about his decision, everyone's reaction was calm and no one opposed it.
I think that in their hearts, they don’t want to meet with Yelu Yanxi.
Ren Chen felt a little surprised.
When everyone set out, they discussed it and wanted to meet with Yelu Yanxi, but they didn't expect to suddenly change their minds.
The person who prompted Yelu Xi Nilie to change his attitude was undoubtedly Yu Yin!
This also made Ren Chen's attitude towards Yu Yin more intimately in the next few days...
The next day, we set off from the temple.
Ningyuan Town has become farther and farther away, gradually disappearing on the horizon.
From this moment on, everyone entered the rule of the Jin Dynasty. This place was once the territory of the Great Liao Dynasty and was once extremely prosperous. But now, it is full of chaos. After passing many villages along the way, they have turned into scorched earth ruins.
At a bend, Yu Yin saw a wooden stake.
The pile was nailed to a corpse, obviously for a while... The weather was hot, and the corpse had rotten and emitted a strong stench. However, when you walked over, you could still see the pain he had suffered before his death from the eyebrows of the corpse. He was nailed to the pile alive and then died. His clothes were a little tattered, but they were dressed in Han people. Ren Chen urged him to step forward, glanced at the corpse, and whispered: "It looks like a northerner..."
Yanyun Han people!
Yu Yin gritted his teeth and drove away.
"Actually, it's not strange."
"Brother, what do you mean?"
"Those women are cruel and extremely vicious.
As long as there is a little resistance in the place, the massacre of the entire village, town, and even the entire city can be regarded as a matter of no one to keep.
When I was a child, I heard that the Liao people were cruel.
But compared with these female sages... Last year, my family was ordered to go to Yingzhou to collect goods, but they saw that Yingzhou was in a depressed state and there were dead people everywhere. Later, I heard that Zhang Jue returned to Song and fought with Wanyan Zongwang in Yingzhou. After the city was broken, Wanyan Zongwang led his troops to plunder and almost killed all the Han people in the city... Because of this, my family also gave up on the official family and followed the arrangements of Master Qi and followed the fourth prince. No matter what, these fourth princes were better than those Jurchen monks."
Ren Chen's voice was very small, but it was also a little despair and grief.
I think that he was willing to follow the Liao people to the north because he had given up on Emperor Huizong.
Yu Yin glanced at Yelu Xinilie and others who were moving in front of him, and could only sigh and reach out to pat Ren Chen's shoulder.
"Brother Xiao Yi, are you going to stay in Keduncheng this time?"
"Um?"
"In fact, it's good to stay in Keduncheng. Although it's a bit desolate and remote, you can have no worries about food and clothing.
Haha, in fact, I can see that the princess seems to like you a little. You have knowledge and extraordinary martial arts. You can stay and display your talents and gain fame. You can't say that in the future, you can marry a princess and become a princess."
Yu Yin was stunned and turned his head to look at Ren Chen.
But after Ren Chen said this, he urged the horse to leave, as if nothing had happened.
What does this mean?
Are you trying to keep me?
This is what he thought, or...
Yu Yin called out and pulled his horse forward. From a distance, he could only see Yelu Yuliyan's back, bathing in the sunset!
After exhaling a turbid breath, Yu Yin hesitated for a moment and urged the horse to follow.
"Brother, I have a wife!
Now that I think about it, she is waiting for me to go back at home, how can I abandon her? As for the prince-consort... Haha, my family never thought about it! When this matter is over, I will return to Kaifeng. No matter what, there is my home."
Ren Chen was stunned for a moment, nodded at Yu Yin, indicating that he understood!
He didn't say anything else, just urged the horse to go hand in hand with Yu Yin...
I think what he said just now was also instructed by someone. To be honest, Yu Yin also liked Yu Liyan's cheerful temperament, but when he thought that Yan Nu was looking forward to him going back at home, he immediately faded away.
I can’t abandon my wife. Although I can’t be considered a person, I don’t want to be Chen Shimei or others…
No, Chen Shimei in history seems to have no idea of ​​abandoning her wife and son, nor is she killed by Bao Zheng. He seems to be a famous minister in the Northern Song Dynasty, so don’t blame a good person. Well, anyway, he just won’t be the ruthless and unrighteous man.
Just as Yu Yin was thinking about his thoughts and was wandering around, a riot suddenly came from the front.
A horse flew in the distance and stopped in front of Yelu Xiniliu horse.
The knight immediately turned over and dismounted, knelt on one knee and said, "Fourth Prince, I found a female straight man in front of me."
"ah?"
Yelu Xi Nilie was stunned and a nervous look suddenly appeared on his face.
"How many characters are there? Can you see clearly who is the leader?"
"The number of people is not too large, just like a dozen people. They are heading here without a banner."
Yelu Xinilie turned his head and looked at Yu Liyan, as if he wanted to ask Yu Liyan for his opinion.
Yu Liyan did not answer, but looked around and gritted her teeth and said, "I think it's the soldiers of the Apostle... There is only one way here. If we don't have a good mount, we may not be able to escape from each other. So we ambush them here, so we can share some worries for our father and even let out a sigh of anger for our brothers who were captured by the Apostle."
While speaking, Yu Liyan took out the black lacquer bow and stared at Yelu Xinilie.
Xi Nilie pondered for a moment and nodded, "Swallow is right. Even if we retreat, we are afraid we can't escape their horses.
Just so happen, we can kill these characters and take their horses, which can also increase our foot strength.
Everyone will disperse immediately, we will be responsible for cutting off their retreat. Brother, you will be with you, so you will hide on both sides of the road and be responsible for ambushing them... Xiao Yi, Yan Zi will leave it to you to protect. Be careful that those animals are all barbarians who are not afraid of death."
"We don't need anyone to protect us."
Yu Liyan got angry as soon as she heard this, "Our archery technique may not be lost to you."
"Swallow, don't be too long-winded. Just follow my arrangements."
Yelu Xinilie did not say anything to Yu Liyan. He waved his hand and took the people down to ambush.
Although Yu Liyan was reluctant, she did not dare to disobey Yelu Xi Nilie too much. She had to put away the black lacquer bow and hid in the woods next to the road with Yu Yin.
Yu Yin took off a shield from his horse, then hesitated for a moment, and pulled out the Loulan sword from his waist.
"What are you doing?"
Yu Liyan looked at Yu Yin and asked.
"If an accident occurs, you can fight for a while."
"How do you fight with such a short knife?"
Yu Liyan looked at the Loulan sword in Yu Yin's hand and couldn't help laughing.
She hesitated for a moment, took out a long bag from the horse's back, opened it and found that it contained two large guns.
"Give!"
Yu Liyan took out a large gun and handed it to Yu Yin.
The gun is a common standard Daning pen gun in the Song army. It was named because the gun is shaped like a pen.
The gun is seven feet and six inches long, which is about 180 cm above. It can be seen that it is shorter than the Song army's standard Daning pen gun, but it happens to be suitable for Yu Liyan to use. A few inches below the spear head, there is a small iron plate with a hook blade on it. When fighting with people, it can prevent the opponent from snatching it by hand. It is also one of the nine standard guns in the Northern Song army...
However, seeing Yu Liyan's behavior is used to using double guns.
Yu Yin put away the Loulan sword, took one of the poles from Yu Liyan, and weighed it in his hand, which was only about ten pounds.
This gun is too light!
More importantly, Yu Yin will not use a gun, what should I do?
He hesitated for a moment and was about to refuse, but Yu Liyan waved her hand and showed a solemn look on her pretty face.
"Don't talk, here you come!"
For some reason, when Yu Liyan said this, Yu Yin suddenly felt inexplicably nervous.
He hesitated for a moment and turned over and dismounted.
With his riding skills that he had only learned for more than ten days, it was easier to fight in the field than to fight with people... He looked at both sides, Yu Yin put away his shield, picked up his spear, took three steps and took two steps to come to a big tree by the roadside.
Yu Liyan was wondering, and saw Yu Yin climbing up the big tree in just a few seconds.
"Xiao Yi, what are you doing?"
Yu Liyan was about to urge her to move forward, but saw Yu Yin on the big tree wavering her hand, pointing in the direction of the road, and then shrinking into a ball and hiding among the branches and leaves.
In the distance, the sound of horse hooves came.
Yu Liyan didn't dare to delay any more, so she turned her horse to a big tree and hid...
Chapter completed!
